Re: My first semi nudes.....
I like the combination of urban graffitti background and "human graffitti".
Re: My first semi nudes.....
Cool! I agree with dsphotog.
She's got more tats than Frank's models!
Re: My first semi nudes.....
thanks....she will soon be one of Frank's models :)
in the first frame both her back and the back of the car are in focus. I shot this at f16. Looking now I think it would be stronger if I used a larger f stop and kept the focus more on her back and left the car to blur. Not sure.....
Re: My first semi nudes.....
I think they're effective, esp. the third, but reckon shallower depth of field, maybe longer lens, to concentrate more on her tattoo and figure would be good too.
Re: My first semi nudes.....
She should have been in panties... They show through anyway.
With Frank, she will wear nothing, except maybe her shoes ;)
Re: My first semi nudes.....
I also agree with dsphotog. This is the beginning of what could be a significant and extensive series. Don't stop now. Don't blur the cars. They work too well with the model.
Re: My first semi nudes.....
she is none too happy with the panty lines......
I thought the tattoos had a bunch of texture as do the railcars. I am still concerned one might overshadow the other but thanks for the nice words....
BTW: the model is my GF and soon to be fiancee Lori
Re: My first semi nudes.....
Never done it so consider that whilst reading.
I would like your fiance to dominate the frame and have the OOF areas be primarily be the general shapes of the graffiti rather than sharp.
Re: My first semi nudes.....
You said it first: not bad, not great either.
*Those* shorts are distracting and unattractive, IMO. That looks like really great body art and I'd like to see more of it/her and less of the surroundings.
I could care less about categorization, but how are these semi-nude?
